Hey, I just received my ICS update on Sensation XE FINALLY after all this waiting. Before you ask any questions: I bought this phone from Romania, it's not simlocked, it has T-mobile branding (software only: boot screen, default message tone, etc) and I say it's from Germany cuz the only english language I can choose from settings is "English (Germany)".
Did you safe the update file?
If by "safe" u mean save, no, I didn't save it.

Hi Guys,
I have imported an HTC Desire from the UK and I live in Australia. I am currently useing my Optus 3g sim card and everything is working well. My concern is missing out on the FROYO 2.2 update as I am not sure if Optus will allow it. The main problem here in Australia is that the national carrrier Telstra has a monopoly on the desire for six months, (hence my import) and is a crap carrier. I don`t know if the ota update that comes through Telstra will have been mutilated with some of their software. Will there be a downloadable version available from HTC website? If so, how hard would it be for a novice like me to install it on my phone?
Thank you for your time and consideration of these questions.
Hey everyone.
After many years of using a BlackBerry I took the plunge and bought my first touchscreen device. I had my reservations about typing quality but the HTC keyboard is fantastic.
The device I purchased was advertised as being shipped from the UK by a UK seller so naturally you assume this is a UK device. Turns out this is an import from Hong Kong. This isn't a major issue as you can still use English and that is all I need but I can't modify the locale from English HK to English UK.
My understanding is if my device has the S-ON lock turned off using an XTC goldcard inserting a UK sim should cause it to automatically detect and use English UK as the locale without having to root it and install the European stock rom.
Would I be right in thinking this?
Simple method:
Download Morelocale 2 from market.
Select English(UK) from the list.
That's all.
Did anyone else get an update message today?
No. What update? Proof?
That's a big no here, and checking for an update doesn't give any results either

There has been OTA updates in Europe. I'm from Denmark and I have received it. Also heard that UK has got it.

I'm from Germany and I received it, too.
It's an update from the Vodafone Stock Rom 1.27.162.1 to 1.35.162.1
are the ota updates dependent on the kernal and not on your location or the mobile network?
I got an update notice (t-mobile, Missouri), but it was just some silly application update. Nothing cool. My wife got the same one at the same time. Maybe this is what you got?
Same here - just some application update. No sort of FW push if that is what you mean.
Holland got ota too.
Here in Holland we got the OTA on branded and unbranded phones too.
Same in France a few days ago. French people using Sense say it improved Sense. Some with touchscreen issues say it's better.
As I use Launcher Pro and never had touchscreen issues, this OTA is just a vast joke for me, nothing new.
This reminds me of the South Park episode where Randy Marsh kills an alien, galaxy police ask him if they've seen anyone,
France: "Nope can't say that we have"
Germany: "Anyone? Nope nobody."
followed by a bunch of other countries.
Offtopic, apologies, hilarious how ironic these threads are, specifically this one...
I'm in Cambodia I've got Asian version..., I just updated to 1.35.707.1
Nope. No update here in California.

No updates in Hong Kong. HTC often skips over Hong Kong altogether unfortunately...

same here in Indonesia, i also got this update
anyone got this update and having trouble with perma temp root?
i cant root it ever since i update my htc sensation with this.
i tried removing superuser and reboot, and run the perm temp root again, but still not working
Not sure what my version is as I bought it in China and comes with all asian language versions (so maybe a generic asian version), but I'm on 1.28 and tried an update check which came up empty.
I just got updated to 1.35.707.1. I am from South Asia- Bangladesh
Hello!
Maybe it's a stupid question.
Official sales of Sensation did not start yet here in Ukraine, but you know, I just can not wait. I can buy gray imported Europe WWE (401) or Asian WWE (707) (I also have seen 701 CID, do not know what it is?).
The question is, if I purchase Asia WWE device, will I have problems? Looks like it have different radio versions.
Main question is: Will I be able to flash it with Europe WWE after we will get unlocked bootloader, or it may have incompatible hardware?
Current operation frequencies is not a problem, my carrier does not have 3G, I'll be using EDGE connection.
Asian ROM won't have European locales so unless you wanna use English I'd get the European handset
I plan to use English interface (it just looks better than cyrillic).
Interesting thing, device with 701 CID had Russian locale as well. I assumed, that 701 is Asian too, but I may be wrong. I did not find on XDA any mentions of x.xx.701 ROM versions.
Can I tell form the box what version of phone is inside? Nonofficial devices sold in sealed boxes, and nobody would open it before purchase.
You can't unfortunately, you can only assume that where it's being purchased from will dictate the version

x.xx.707 had Russian.
But, I think it safe to assume that all ROMs contain large amount of locales. Correct me if I wrong.
I bought an asian version and the seller told me to get the app more locale 2 from the market. With it you can have any languages you want!

Hi
I have also asian sensation (1.35.707.1) and also using it in Ukraine.
Can someone tell me do I have any good _technical_ reason to flash a European rom? Don't care about locale, i'm using English anyway.
How about radios or any other core software? I'm concerned with reception quality, maybe with EU rom i'd have a better reception?
I had HTC Incredible S, and after updating to EU rom from Asian reception was terrible (might also be a common Android 2.2->2.3 upgrade issue)
Thanks!
HTC replaced my incredible s with a htc sensation. I live in the uk and just got the phone today. When I try to set up the phone the only English options are Luxembourg and Netherlands. Have i been sent a European phone by mistake? Can someone from the UK who has a unlocked and unbranded HTC sensation tell me if their set up screen allowed for UK English to be selected please

Mine came from Dialaphone and was unlocked and not branded to any network, when I first switched it on, it defaulted to English on the first screen I saw, then went through all the set up screens, all in English.
Yea just used a RUU and still only had those options :/, I shall ring HTC again.
Same problem - fixed by HTC...
Hi,
I had the same problem. Sent it back to HTC to flash to a UK Rom.
Works fine now!
Suppose if you have the wrong CID it could only display certain languages. I really don't know!
